A blog which I have negleted for some time now. But really, I have an excuse for not blogging. Not a good one, mind you, but it’s an excuse. I was having job issues. Mac has done a lot of complaining about his job. Well, my issues went far and above (in my opinion) his, and his job sucks. My anger and bitterness permeated my thoughts, and all I could think of to write was about what I started referring to as “the bad place.” So I didn’t write at all since I am not going to write about work issues. However, as of Jan 11, I have a new job. Same org, different company, different section. I no longer dread coming to work every day.
In other news, my doctor finally got on me about my eating habits which have a direct bearing on my weight. I put myself on a diet last week, and this week I am starting an exercise routine. My diet consists of portion control because I am an overeater. I quit smoking in 2000, and just traded one vice for another. I managed to lose about 4 pounds last week just by not eating so much. Yesterday I ate like a hog again, but there is a reason behind that, and that will level off in a day or 2.
Finally, I am in my last class before my capstone and am set to FINALLY graduate in June.
And just maybe I will start blogging again regularly. 
Congrats on the new/same job!
Glad you’re happier now. Wish I could say the same.
Good luck with the DIEt.
Thanks, Mac. The diet is killing me. I want to eat EVERYTHING!
So, is the job good, or just less sucky?
What’s a capstone?
What’s a diet?
What’s portion control?
Damn, your life sounds too complicated for me…
Right now it’s less sucky because I have nothing much to do until all our equipment is installed.
LOL @ what is diet and portion control. It is torture.
Wow. You have been going through some stuff. I am glad that you were able to change jobs because I bet that helps your mindset quite a bit. I know how it feels to work for someplace that you come to despise and it is not easy. I know Mac knows the feeling (although I think he ends up hating ANY job he gets because it keeps him from his Keith’s for too long – LOL). Seriously, good for you for your new healthy habits. It’s not always easy but I know you will feel better when you know you are doing something for yourself.
As for the blogging, you just keep checking in with us every so often and we will be happy with what we can get. Oh, and I wondered what a capstone is too. 
The medications the doc threatened me with in 15 years if I don’t get my eating habits under control now is what finally did it. I hate taking medication of any kind, though I did accept his vitamin recommendations. That is helping with my energy level I think.
Glad to have you back…
(I couldn’t pass up the fire-breathing dragon!)
It’s good to be back, though I guess now I have to get off my butt and actually blog now. LOL
Oh, and capstone is similar to thesis, though it doesn’t necessarily have to be a paper.
